Well! Imagine if I handed you this tape and asked you to generate a report of customers and their orders. You'd need to unload the tape to disk, break the data into three files, sort it all, merge it together. Oh, and did I tell you, you don't have enough disk space to do that.
Sorry, missed your reply Jonathan. Well spoken!
I (almost) totally agree, execpt for the fact that there was quite a chance that you didn't have a disk at all.
